Jess is the absolute best!
Since receiving our wedding photos from Jess, several of my friends and family members (including 2 professional photographers!) have asked me for her contact info because of how amazing her photos are!! When we started looking for a wedding photographer, we knew that we needed to find someone with a great eye for candids, who wouldn't make our pictures feel too staged, who had a fun/funky vibe like us, and who could handle wrangling my extremely large family (full of very opinionated people) for family photos, and Jess handled everything with ease! I feel so lucky that we found Jess, and I cannot recommend her more. Jess made everyone feel comfortable throughout the entire wedding day, and even gave guidance to family members who are normally awkward in photos (e.g. suggesting ways to pose to make them more comfortable). Jess went above and beyond throughout the entire planning process, checking in with us, getting to know us, and even coming to a venue walkthrough so she could get a sense of the space! I am so grateful for all of the work Jess put into our wedding, and the photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined. I rarely even like photos of myself, but I honestly am so in love with the ones that Jess took that I jump on every opportunity to whip out my phone and share them with friends!
Jess is the best!
My wife and I are very awkward photo subject, so we were looking for a photographer who would be able to take great candid shots, pose us naturally, and make us feel comfortable. Jess came highly regarded by my sister, so we were pleasantly surprised that she was available for an engagement shoot in San Diego. Jess was professional, thorough, and fun! She spent so much care on the little details, and was able to take a quick look around our locations and the perfect spots to shoot in. She managed our awkwardness so well, and made us feel like we were just casually taking photos with a close friend. Prior to the shoot, she even sent outfit recommendations, and got to know us over a video call so that she could get some ideas about what types of scenes we could capture! Our favorite part of the experience was seeing the previews for the first time. Jess truly went above and beyond for us, turning around a quick set of photos so that we could put them on the wedding invitations on a short timeline, but without sacrificing an ounce of quality. She made all of the pictures look effortlessly beautiful, elegant, and full of love. We loved our experience with Jess so much, that we asked her team to shoot our wedding photos as well. Unfortunately, she wasn't available personally, but her team did an amazing job, and Jess even personally edited the photos in her style afterwards for us. If you're looking for a photographer with enormous talent, a detailed eye, and who will treat you like a member of her family, Jess is the best in the business. We feel so tremendously grateful to have worked with her, and would recommend her to anyone for any occasion! Thank you so much Jess!
